All 17 players played in the SG Ball competition this year.

What do you think of the squad?
Who are the bolters? Who's unlucky to miss out?

It's not a full strength side because some players such as Kieran Foran haven't been playing schoolboy footy this year even though they are still at school.

 

[roopy]

Ethan Cook is a bench player in Ball, so very big improvement for him to make the side.
Peter Mata'utai is having an amazing year and has had an amazing career so far.

Ummm Kieran Foran hasn't played school footy, Wade Graham is still schoolboy age but isn't playing school footy or has left school early, Greg Waddell injured, Ben Jones injured/left school early.
I'm surprised Liam Higgins missed out after making the NSW under 18's
Also another ommission is Adam reynolds who won the peter sterling medal as a year 11 student last year

 

[Gallus Gallus]

[Dogaholic]

Wade isn't playing any schoolboy footy this year, even though he is still in year 12. Greg Waddell was an Aust Schoolboy last year in Year 11 and would've been there again this year if it wasn't for injury. Lachlan Coote also made it in year 11 last year and left school this year to take up an apprenticeship.
